Summary:
As AI adoption accelerates, so do the complexities of real-world deployment. This month’s talks tackle those complexities head-on, offering both strategic and technical perspectives on building reliable, scalable, and human-centered AI solutions.
In this session:
🔹 The first talk delves into the deployment of agentic AI systems in healthcare, addressing challenges such as data heterogeneity, safety, regulation, and trust. You’ll learn about explanation-based and modular design principles, hybrid RAG-based deployment strategies, and real-world applications across triage, radiology, and dementia care.
🔹 The second talk bridges the gap between ML experimentation and production. Through a practical case study, it explores the full machine learning lifecycle—from training to CI/CD-enabled deployment—along with best practices in MLOps, model monitoring, and cross-functional collaboration.
